Pete Buttigieg was egregiously late to address the Ohio derailment disaster. Instead, he's employing the age old Democrat technique of identity politics-based pandering while courting corporate donors.Due Dissidence is a reader-supported publication.

I’ve been pretty encouraged to see lefty podcasts (which haven’t agreed on anything since Sanders’ 2020 campaign) from TYT to BJG universally condemn Pete for being a psychopathic empty suit. Hope the hate stays warm for when he decides to pop his head in a democratic primary. Although I agree that Pete is a calculating psycho, I also think that his narcissism sometimes gets the best of him. I don’t see how this is going to end well for him, because even though it may not hurt him next time around, I don’t see how he wins, and if he doesn’t win he could very well lose his relevance
